Hi All
Sorry if this is a really silly question, but where can I source two pack paint? (In Brisbane) I've tried one smash repair place but they said they couldn't sell it to me, maybe they were just being stuck up I don't know. Any one here used it, and what sorta price would I be looking at, for flat back or matt black.
Any info would be much appreciated.

Most panel beaters will be reluctant to sell it on account of the isocyanates content.

Yes I am aware that it has some dangerous contents, so does that mean no one can buy it?

have a look for ACE, auto colour equipment, they advertise in the crusin mag. they have a matt/flat black rodders kit for $170 i think..

Technically it should not be sold to the general public. However most automotive paint suppliers should sell it to you.

Is John's Paint Shed at Hemmant still in operation???

I am building some rock sliders, and from previous experience have found that normal enamel just isn't a tough enough paint. It just scratches way too easily and while it is easy to just touch up, two pack is just better as it adds a tough second coating.
Now I could get them powdercoated, but for that I have to wait 2-3days for it to be done. With two pack, its easy as I can apply it myself, I have all the equipment to do it.

HAHA no way, I've seen a few horrid paint jobs, not about to ruin mine.

I would suggest some spray cans of the epoxy based matt black paint from your nearest auto parts supplier.
Not as many nasty chemicals and is very long lasting, about $15 a can from memory.

two shops in Lismore, a fairly small city, sell two pack to panelbeaters, etc., as well as selling panelbeating suppies. Sure their would be similar suppliers in Brisbane.
